About Tour Guide Rina K.

Hi I'm Rina. Thank you for your interest, and welcome to Japan.

I was born and raised in Osaka, and I’m truly excited to show you both the city’s famous landmarks and its hidden gems.

Osaka is full of incredible food and fun places to explore.

I enjoy guiding guests into Osaka’s hidden, local neighborhoods where you can taste unusual dishes and discover spots only locals know.

I look forward to guiding you through an Osaka you’ll want to return to.


Soy principiante y no hablo mucho español, pero me encanta recibir a huéspedes hispanohablantes.

Reviews

Above and beyond

Our guide went above and beyond to make sure everyone in our group had an amazing experience. She took the time to understand each person’s interests and preferences and tailored the itinerary accordingly so everyone felt included and happy. What truly set her apart was her willingness to help with so much more than just sightseeing. She assisted us with restaurant reservations that matched our dietary preferences, helped book appointments, and even guided us to the best shopping spots based on what we were looking for. Her local knowledge, organization, and attention to detail made our trip incredibly smooth and stress-free. She was patient, kind, and always one step ahead in making sure everything was taken care of. We are so grateful for all her help and would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Japan. Thank you for making our trip so memorable!

Thank you so much for the comment. I really appreciate your kind words. I had such a great two days exploring Osaka with you. The two girls’ reactions at each spot made the tour so much fun for me too. Hope to see you again someday!

Rina Made Osaka Feel Like Home

Rina was incredible. Meeting us at our hotel made everything simple, and from there she guided us through Osaka like a true local. She showed us the famous sights but also the tucked away places we never would have discovered on our own. She introduced us to local foods, helped us shop, and even assisted us in buying beautiful traditional items we couldn’t have purchased without her. Rina is fun, engaging, and so easy to be around it honestly felt like spending the day with a sister. Her idea to split the tour over two days was perfect and made the experience even better. We’re so grateful for everything she shared with us. Tammy & Kim
